Farmers help farmers

Far­ming, har­ve­s­ting, rai­sing ani­mals and sur­vi­val are more than just a game for many peop­le. Loo­kout Games is proud to have led a fund­rai­ser to sup­port the tri­bal peop­le of the Arbo­re, in Sou­thern Ethio­pia (read more about the Arbo­re peop­le here — text in Ger­man) for 10 years. Loo­kout Games dona­ted a por­ti­on of the pro­ceeds from each Agri­co­la game that is sold to the pro­ject.

The pro­ject was co-ordi­na­ted by Anthro­po­lo­gists and Afri­ca rese­ar­chers Chris­ti­na Gab­bert and Felix Gir­ke. It offers both short-term emer­gen­cy reli­ef and lon­ger-term assi­s­tan­ce in esta­bli­shing and sup­porting local agri­cul­tu­ral activi­ties.
